Hi @Matthias,
I’m trying to use RNetExtract to extract a net. My expectation was that the metal shape would be split into smaller pieces to form a resistor network, but the result only contains very few resistors. I also tried setting skip_simplify=True, but the outcome didn’t change much.
Is there a way to control or limit the size of each resistor segment when the metal is divided? With the current segmentation, the extracted resistors seem a bit inaccurate.
I’ve attached the script and the GDS file I used.
Thanks to you and your team,
dai

I forgot put result I got:

Why do you say, it's not accurate?
The extractor does "square counting" as it says. The metal2 strip on layer 32 has a length of 2.617 (via center to center) and width of 0.23. That makes 11.37826 squares. With 0.04 Ohm/square this gives 0.45513 Ohm - exactly what the last line says. Splitting the line into smaller parts will not change that.
